Retired Status

Page Content

​Retired Status is intended both to recognize your years of service and to acknowledge your dedication to certification.

What does Retired Status mean?

• You are no longer actively working, practicing, teaching or supervising in the field, but wish to maintain your association with ARDMS. • You may no longer use any ARDMS credential designations. • You do not hold Active Registry Status.

Retired Status is permanent. Once retired, regaining credential(s) means you must apply, pay for and pass all applicable ARDMS examinations.

What are the Benefits of Retired Status?

• A Certificate of Recognition, available to be printed in your MY ARDMS​
account.
• No annual renewal fee.
• Exempt from CME requirements

How do I change my status to Retired?

Before you can have a Retired Status, you must have an Active Status registration, have no unresolved disciplinary actions and be in full compliance with ARDMS CME requirements, including successfully completing the CME Audit, if selected.
